And Starfield isn't even in the running. It came in below expectations.

Because theyve historically barely had any exclusives to speak of, and almost all of them have been multiplayer shooters (that are worse than Unreal Tournament, which came out 24 years ago, but I digress).

Because all they have is Halo and Gears, which are basically just bro games.

Because TGA has been around for 10 years, and for 7 of those years, Microsoft has been pushing Game Pass - a service that pushes mostly 3rd party games - instead of making 1st party games, which is typically not their focus.

Microbots and Sony Ponies on twitter are having a meltdown that Mario Wonder got a nomination over FF16 and Starfield. Yeah, act real shocked that a 90+ metacritic game got over games that got 80's.

Who even cares when we know that this is just a "Zelda or BG3" race anyways? No one ever says "Well, this game was a GOTY Nominee" when it comes to these things.

Or who cares, since its the Game Awards. Its a glorified event to showcase trailers and interview creators. Nobody cares about the actual awards.

I mean, true as well. GotY does nothing for us gamers. Unlike best picture nominees, the top games are typically games we are aware of and played/actively chose to not play; we're not getting exposed to anything that was under the radar for the most part. It really is just a validation trophy for us.

For example, one of the funniest tweets I've seen all year
